This is wonderful work geekmaster, which sounds like an answer to two of the most pressing questions for me as a Kindle owner: 1) will amazon be able to permanently lock my kindle away from me? and 2) will I ever be able to unbrick my badly bricked Kindle? You work on the fundamentals, and you share your knowledge (also thinking of the other thread where you gave me some great hints), which makes you a sterling member of the community.
